Irony In Boxing

Mayweather speaking up against beating women in the Corrales fight, then going to jail for beating his ex-girlfriend. just to be clear, he didnt beat his ex he grabbed her in a rough manner(court docs) and restrained her(which is illegal)against her will. which is a weak reason to send someone to jail. if that had been me or any other poster we would still be walking around free. and that is not an example of an ironic situation.

Still no irony. Irony would be when Hearns said Hagler wasn't going to go 4 rounds, then Hagler knocked him out in the third. a KO in a boxing match isn't something that is really unexpected. I'm sure plenty of people thought that fight would end in a knockout. the outcome wasn't ironic to Hagler at all because he thought he was gonna win anyway. Yes, irony is one of those words that is hard to define because it can be used in so many ways in literature, plays, life, etc........but basically it would be an outcome to a situation that was totally unexpected to all the players involved, including the reader/viewer if there is one. the beginning and ending are related, but such polar opposites that nobody saw it coming.

That's just an unfortunate coincidence. Irony is a ****ing hard word to define True.......

So ironic that Ali made fun of the way Frazier talks and what not, and than ends up in the condition he is. It's kind of ironic, since Ali ended up being the one who couldn't speak or talk and everything. I could be wrong. That's just an unfortunate coincidence. Irony is a ****ing hard word to define

Irony would be like if Floyd 'Money' Mayweather went broke

The irony would have been if the kid in the wheelchair could now walk, works at the mgm, and realizes he is the one responsible for pushing Tim around in that chair....tips the wheelchair over during the press conference and gets his unexpected, dramatic revenge. Damn. Even though I love him.....Ali talking about how Joe Frazier speaks and saying he doesn't know how to speak clearly and what not, and than ending up with his condition. Damn.

There has been no irony in this thread so far, just coincidences.

Berto accusing of Ortiz doping, even though I think Berto's case was contamination

Its ironic that Bradley already had a November 10th rematch banner, and then more irony when Michael Buffer strangely announced with emphasis as Pacquiao being "Undefeated for the last Seven Straight Years" like he was foresighting an upset. Just my opinion

It's ironic that Amir Khan said he was going to knock Danny Garcia out and he got KTFO
